Charges Filed Against the Pennsylvania
Railway CornDanY.


WASHINGTON, May 23.-Before the Inter-
State Commerce Commission to-day, Will
lam Brown, in behalf of the Chicago and
Alton Railroad Company, filed charges
sgainst the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany of violation OF the third section of the
Interstate commerce act. He charged
specifically that the Pennsylvania Com
pany had unlawfully given preference and
advantage to the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy Railroad Company in the inter
change of passengers to Chicago, and de.
MED the Chicago and Alton reasonable
facilities for the interchange of passenger
traffic. This is alleged to be the result of
an unlawful combination on the part of
the Pennsylvania and other companies to
coerce the public.
Mr.. Brown also filed in behalf of the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Road
similar charges against the New York Gen.
trail and Hudson River Railroad Company.
The Commission, after hearing his state.
ment, entered an order for the companies,
against which the complaints are made, to
appear and make answer in ten days.
Statements were also filed in behalf of the
Chicago and Alton and ChIcsgo, Rock
Island and Pacific Railroad Company in
answer to the complaints made against
them by the Burlln Stock Car Company.
The Commission has received a com.
munication from the Mississippi Railroad
Commission protesting against the suspen-
sion of section 4, save only as to eXcep'
tional shipments in cases where the same
is manifestly demanded to secure speedy
transit.
The City Council of Central City, Neb.,
also protests any suspension of the fourth
section Of the act.
